After last night, Grand erupted at dawn with a reasonable interval. The temperature was listed at 19. Rift erupted soon after, and had quit by the time I got out just before 09:00. The temperature was still a couple of degrees below freezing, and there were quite a few icy runoff channels around Grand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also noticed that it was nicely steamy. There was nothing coming from the hillside with the sputs like Sput D and Sputnik. But there was a slight whisp of steam coming from the location of East Triplet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterwards I went to look around Geyser Hill, where there were still a lot more frozen runoff channels, even at 10:00. At around 11:40, I decided I wanted to get over to Grand, and left. I was at the bridge when the \"water in the Indicator\" call came out. So I reversed and watched the eruption. After a morning with a consistent wind direction, it shifted three minutes into the eruption so that the boardwalk got a soaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A quick reconfigure at the cabin, and it was out to Grand. Arrived to find Turban in what was probably a Delay Interval, based on the Turban eruption duration and the behavior during the following interval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Six Turban eruptions later, late in a West Triplet eruption, we got our second Turban Delay eruption. Four more Turban eruptions and we got a third Delay. Grand finally erupted two more Turban intervals later, on an interval of sixteen minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grand started with a large boop, and there were two bursts. West Triplet followed the Grand eruption, and there was a report of Rift erupting with a 11 hour interval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following Grand we only had to wait a few minutes to have an eruption of Uncertain, and then it was time to get out of the wind and cold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
